Bruna For Dawn

Well I mean she looks Marilyn with out looking Marilyn... dunno if that makes sense but shrug! I like her look.
My brother has freckles because he is a redhead and he even has them on the tip of his nose. When he is out in the sun in his pool for long periods he sometimes gets them on his lips and eyelids (lol) , but I like that you removed it.

Yea, freckles are per person. I used to be really full of freckles but as I aged they went away.
So took me some doing but got the Portia hair properly refitted to Dawn. Not tried any of Dawn's head morphs with it yet but looks great on her. This kinda shows what the makeup looks like on her default shape anyways. I can't figure out how to get the morphs from the original hair prop transferred into the refitted Portia as this was exported as an obj and brought back in and transferred like that because every attempt to use the transfer utility on the one built for V4 was a mess, tried like 6 times with various settings. Finally figured out the right way to export the prop as an OBJ, I had to reassign the group's via the surfaces so applying the mat options would work properly. It all worked out but I'd really like to get the movement and style morphs transferred over. I've always loved the Portia hair.
Anyway, had a good day working on the skin and basic mat settings... I'll have some time this weekend to get things looking even better hopefully!

That's not one I've converted for Dawn as yet, and I use Netherworks Hair Conversion System, but it's Poser only, so not sure how the hair would work in the latest DS, though it probably would. Only the textures for it would be different. I happen to like that hair.
AHA, I just checked and it IS on my list of V4 hairs to convert for Dawn. One of these days.

Awesome
shes lovely richardx
She's coming along nicely. 
I like her.

Regarding the hair - I don't "convert" my hairs for use. I load them in with Dawn or Dusk in default/zero pose, and then I just parent the hair to the head. From there I can use the various translation, scale, rotation dials (and hair morphs if the hair has them) to get it fitted properly to their heads. The hair will stay on the head and follow the head when the figure is posed. For me, this is much easier than doing all sorts of fitting and cloned conversions.

The reason I do use the clones is that I save the files as duf format and when you use the fit to as opposed to the parenting to the head they will also follow extreme morphs like Willow. I actually convert the hr2 hairs to this format as I find them easier to use. I only use parenting if I can't get the clone to work for some reason...it's very rare that happens though.
Yes, I have a clone made but it made no difference. IIRC there is something weird about HR2 files when converting some of them and this is apparently one of those so I just moved it into place and exported to ZBrush along with Dawn and did a proper fit and then saved it out as an OBJ, created the proper surface zones with matching names to make sure the MATS worked. There are no movement morphs but I'm actually OK with that for now.
Thanks for the comps. I'm working away at the internal maps (Disp, Bump, Normal, SSS and AO's) to make the skin look more realistic.

Chica's got some guns!! Looking good!
Yea, finally got the scattering I was looking for and got the render settings about where they need to be BUT I ended up with a very sunburned Bruna! So waiting on the experts at DAZ forums for some more advice on what value to change, turn down or turn off! lol
PS. Alisa, can you please tap the forum coders on the shoulders and ask them to have the system remember browser prefs? I am put back to what ever default is set up for the software your running there at the Hive so I have to change back to the folder I want and change my thumbnails to large so I can see what I'm looking for. Thanks honey! HUGS

BUTT indeed! LOL Nice Donkey on your thread! Glute controls ?
I sort of like the coloring. It gives her sort of an Indian look and I don't mean Native American though probably not what you were looking for.

Looking good Ram...love the new images.
I use your method for converting to HR2 files and so far most have worked but I have had one or two go funny. You should be able to transfer over the morphs using the transfer utility...
Still talking to the folks on the DAZ forums in the iRay skin settings thread. Making some progress.... Little by little. This knowledge will serve me in my attempts to do other skin packs in the future so I take my time and stay patient with myself in learning as I go along! This is the latest test render and have a test makeup option applied to her....
